Magus Fenrir Therion Steps down:

Greetings Friends,
As most of you know, I, Magus Fenrir Therion, have been a Templar (public representative) for the Therian Temple for several years now. My duties have included running the official Therian Temple website and forum as well as being a press contact and speaking on behalf of Therian Temple to the public.
I have enjoyed and readily given my efforts and energies to all things Therian Temple, and I am thankful to have been given the opportunity to represent this great organization.
However, I will no longer be attending this post for the Therian Temple.

HP N. Noctis has already taken over the rest of the online aspects of running the Therian Temple, and she will be the primary contact for now. Her direct email is noctiscultus@gmail.com.
You may still reach the OvB via info@theriantemple.org .

The reason for my resignation from Templar status is not that I have grown lazy or infirm, but rather that I will not be able to provide online assistance, nor will I be able to be in frequent contact with the public or press.
At the end this month, I will be moving into my new computer-less home and effectively, living “off the grid”.
I will only be able to access email perhaps once every month or month and a half (sometimes longer) when I visit my family’s home, and only my close friends will have my cellphone number.
For those of you who are fellow environmentalist, isolationists and/or naturalists who may be interested in this lifestyle, visit the following links for information:

Thanks for all the memories, HAIL THE INNER BEAST!

The Book of Were-Wolves New Edition

Members of the The Therian Temple’s Ordo vir Bestia have just published a book version of the 19th-century were-wolf text, “The Book of Were-Wolves”, in both paperback and hardcover editions.

Written in 1865 by a British Theologian and Hymn-composer (he composed the well-known hymn “Onward Christian Soldiers”), this text delves into the history of beliefs and traditions surrounding human-animal transformations and related ideas.

Far from being a “factual document”, “The Book of Were-wolves” is a look into the mystical and magical esoteric ideas and lore about man’s “Inner Beast” that were prevalent in the world of the late 1800s.

One can clearly see the basis for the myriad Hollywood Film-versions of the “Wolf-Man” in the details of folkloric poems and traditions.

The research compiled in Rev. Baring-Gould’s text paint a unique picture of a mystical 19th-century world where monsters are very real and believed-in.

Luckily, the helpful hymn-composer turned literary Good Samaritan is there to guide you through this archaic and frightening world of wolf-men, vampires, cannibals and murderers.

“The Book of Were-Wolves” is a must-read for anyone interested in human-animal transformations, folklore, or even just monster movies.
